Clear, high quality ID cards for professionals who work in the NHS, or in private medical facilities, play a very important role. Private sector and Staff identity cards are beneficial in a number of ways, most significantly of course, in issues surrounding safety and security.
Not only is the issue of safety important for those who work in the healthcare sector on the front line, but safety is also hugely important when it comes to data. When ordering Staff identity cards online you need to be sure that the personal data of staff is both safe and secure. If you choose a reputable ID printer in the UK such as Advanced Card Bureau Ltd, you can be sure that any data you submit is stored on a fully end-to-end encrypted, AWS cloud based data system.
Alongside data protection and the issue of security, there are a number of other considerations to think about when ordering ID cards. Here are a list of some key questions to consider before you put an order in:
Q) Is it only a physical form of ID that you require?
- NHS workers also typically require digital ID as well as a plastic card. The two will need to match, so be sure to enquire about digital ID from your card provider before you supply any data.
Q) Where do your Staff identity cards need to be sent to?
- When choosing a card provider, be sure to check if they offer direct mailing services. With direct mailing you can send ID cards straight to the recipient.
Q) What size ID card order do you require?
- Do you have hundreds of ID cards to design and print, or do you need thousands? You’ll need to be confident that your card supplier has the experience and the capacity to deal with a large ID card order. One of the first questions to ask is – How long can you expect your order to take.
Q) Do your ID cards require additional functions?
- You can choose to add signatures, barcodes and magnetic strips to your ID cards. Of course, such features will require the supply of additional data. Staff data is best managed and submitted in database form, and some card providers have automated systems which can check data for common errors such as spelling mistakes and missing figures.
So there you have it, some important considerations for you to think about before you place your order for Staff identity cards. If you require any further help, guidance or advice regarding any aspect of ID card printing, you can talk to the team at ACB ltd.
